Sorry, I can't find the link on John's joining the Rock Stars against Bush concert series that someone posted earlier today. It was on msnbc.com. Basically, he said he wasn't voting for Bush because our country is so divided politically. Friends can't talk to friends, family can't talk to family, etc.
When I read this, while I agree with him, this is not new to Bush's administration. Remember 2000 and before with all the Clinton bashing? It was tough going for me to say I supported Clinton and the Democratic Party without someone coming back with some derisive comment.
Now I live in Texas, so it may be different elsewhere, it seems that Republicans are dividers, plain and simple. They may try to blame the division on the Democrats, but from where I stand,it's them. If someone I knows says they are Republican I may think they're dumb, but I don't come back with an insult. I listen to their reason (if they have one). I get middle fingers and crappy insults when I profess my political leaning.
Just a random thought and rant.
